Hi Dobby,

Thanks info. That answers a lot of questons and a lot of hard work. 
Looks as if my John Cockroft may have died by 1851 anyway so no luck there then. Ah well all the fun of the chase.

Then there's Sue (Bumble) when see gets back off her holidays but in the mean time find Steve Whitwam and Lenny Beaumont in google or yahoo search their Email addresses a well put out on the web. Both are in to Ancestry round Halifax with 60 over years at it between them.

Hi Dobby,

Is Queensbury the same as Mt. Zion church?
Sandra

Hi Sandra.

Mount Zion is Lower down is Methodist New connection
1775
Queensbury is Baptist And Methodist  that is the Mother (Earlist) of Non conformist or non Orthodox meaning that is alternative to Anglican Church of England established 1747 (The first)

The vally out of Halifax has Overden/Wheatly/Illingworth half way up, at its head is Ogden/Denholm/and Queensbury.

There were 4 John Cockrofts in Gro deaths Two in 1846 -One in 1848 and one 1865 in Halifax.

As you know where round about where he lived  at death only the Death certs will answer as to the exact place of death. (Expensive but that will answer. The 2 wrong death certs will be will be £4 and the right one £7 in total= £15 English money)

Hi Sandra PS

I'll carry on Sniffing around Halifax*** as I'm doing research for Bumble as she does my ancestry at Lichfield Warwickshire when I'm back home in Yorkshire.

If he was a Manufacturer there must be something on him that may differentiate the 3 John Cockroft's 1840's to the right John and things usualy turn up when one is looking for something else. At least a few of us know of him now in Yorkshire.
